Find out in this report how the two ERP solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The best thing about Infor LN is that you can use it for inter-company business and for international businesses, especially by mid-sized and big companies."
"Most of them who use Infor LN have add-ons connected to ERP. It's either a supplier exchange, or they've got sales problems that are integrated with it."
"Our clients appreciate the financial part of the solution, which is usually very complex. The Spanish localization is also very good."
"It's fast, predicts well, and is basically the best tool in the market for the automotive industry and network planning projects."
"The most valuable feature is its ability to handle products with up to 2,500 components, making it valuable for streamlining complex business operations."
"The best feature of this solution is it comes as a complete bundle. The solution has effective project, document, and application management. Additionally, the collaboration is fantastic, it is well integrated, and can be customized."
"Material planning and predictive planning are both essential aspects."
"I like the tool’s multisite functionality."
"Almost all of the features that we use are efficient. Live master planning successfully handles all of our company's requirements."
"A valuable feature of Microsoft Dynamics AX is that it is stable."
"From a developer's perspective, the architecture of Dynamics has a well-designed security layer, which prevents coding issues between different layers. This is a significant advantage."
"If anyone is familiar with Microsoft products then they can handle it easily."
"Flexibility is the best feature. Because we have the source code, we can develop our ideas. It enables us to develop new functions."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Dynamics AX is material planning."
"I like that it's a complete ERP solution from production level to branch level."
"The performance is good."
"In general, the HR-related part of Infor LN doesn't work properly in Germany, making it an area that requires improvement."
"The finance model within this solution does not have very strong reporting functionality, which I would like to see improved."
"From a technical perspective, LN needs to work on customization and integration. It's fairly expensive for many clients to migrate from a customized private solution to the cloud. Infor needs to improve the cloud solution to make the migration from the on-prem customized solution faster and smoother. Otherwise, many clients will find it difficult or expensive to do."
"From a customers' perspective, Infor LN covers most of the processes in the company, but sometimes, they have to choose other tools because of the functionality or the cost of the Infor solution. It covers the core functions of the company—such as financial, operations, logistics, and so on—very well, but it doesn't cover some parts such as invoices, digitization, etc."
"I would like to see the CRM improved. I would also like to see a supply chain management feature."
"One area that could be improved in Omada Access Points is team communication."
"When it comes to planning, it's more challenging to consider the entire structure, such as having a specific SKU and wanting to look at the planning for the whole structure. You must delve into individual item details to plan for it with order planning. Therefore, improvements will allow more comprehensive planning for each SKU."
"Only people who undergo training from the companies can learn about Infor products."
"Microsoft Dynamics AX could be improved by having more features available. We are going to 365 now, to use all the modules, because we found that there weren't many new things we were able to develop with AX. There were a lot of things that weren't available, so we are moving and integrating other things. The customization of upgrades should also be faster. We would also like to see more security features."
"There is no Arabic interface in Microsoft Business Central, which is a big weak point."
"I sometimes put in wrong data that needs correction, but I cannot change it or approve it without withdrawing it. It will then take time for me to go back in and edit it."
"Our version has performance issues so it gets stuck and is slow."
"There are so many errors."
"The product is standardised across industries so it is not a good fit for all types of sectors."
"At times there are issues related to reporting, sometimes with the integration between two or three modules, and sometimes to the logic itself."
"Microsoft Dynamics AX can improve system performance and security. The security is basic and needs a lot of improvement."
